I started giving to this organization when it had a different name, many years ago. I sponsored children and received letters from them, wrote back, etc. After a while I agreed to let my monthly donation be p[aid directly by my credit card. After that the letters dried up, and I no longer knew w ho or where my money was going. After several years of this, my credit card expired and I got a letter asking for the new information. I wrote back saying I had decided not to renew my msupport.
Surprise! I immediate received two different letters from children in Africa - the actual country was not specified - one wrote thanking me for "choosing me to be your chld". I feel I am being subjected to emotinal blackmail - I never agreed to resume if the organization started arranging for letters again, but I feel terrible about not anwering these letters! and of course, there is an envelope enclosed so I can send my gifts by electronic funds transfer.
